Carroll’s big award

Dennis Carroll, formerly general manager at 3M ESPE, was delighted to receive a scroll commemorating the addition of his name to the BDTA roll of honour by the president Peter Gowers at the BDTA midwinter meeting in December.

Dennis revealed to the audience of BDTA members, that there was low participation at BDTA events and decreasing membership numbers, when he took over as BDTA president in 1993.

He undertook a recruitment drive for new members and encouraged existing members to become more actively involved in the association.

There were more than 100 individuals from amongst the 117 BDTA member companies at the midwinter meeting, which was a testimony to the success of Dennis’ campaign.

Dennis served two consecutive terms of office as president of the association 1993 – 1995 followed by 10 years as a BDTA council member, committing a great deal of time and effort to the activities of the association in the process.

Commenting on his award, Dennis said; ‘Whilst I am very proud to have been given this honour by the BDTA for my personal contribution to the development of the BDTA and its services to its members, I also recognise the tremendous support both as president and council member that I received from BDTA members.‘They gave me the inspiration and confidence to lead many of the initiatives that have helped create the vibrant, relevant and successful association that the BDTA is today.’
